MilSpouse Friday Fill-in #5

Oh, this week just keeps getting better and better. More school drama is rearing its ugly head, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed very tightly that I'll be able to work something out with the school of education. The short story is that I believe they enrolled me in the wrong class this term (which was supposed to be my last), and now that I'm halfway through that class, they're telling me that I still have one more class to take. Sound familiar? Sigh.

This weekend Colby and I will reach the end of month number one of the deployment. Which means only a bit more than three months to go. Um, yeah, that sounded much better in my head. But still, it's one month closer than we were a month ago, so it's a start. It does make the first couple of questions of the Mil-Spouse Fill-in pretty easy to answer though!

1) Besides the horizontal mambo, what do you miss most when your spouse is deployed?Someone else cooking dinner with me... okay, for me.

2) What do you miss the least?How he untucks the sheets on his side of the bed at night. I have a strange need for tight, tucked in sheets, but poor dude is just too tall for our bed, and he says his feet feel trapped by the sheets if they aren't untucked. My little Abe Lincoln.

3) You only get three crayons to finish your picture... which three do you choose and why?I guess it depends on what my picture is, doesn't it! Hm... well, I'm getting pretty pumped up for LSU football season, so I'll go with purple, gold and black!!

4) If you could have your own fragrance, what would it be called?Eau de Introvert

5) If the shoes make the man (or woman), what do your shoes say about you right now?Well, if you mean the shoes I'm wearing--I'm not! So I guess that says I'm a hillbilly. If you're talking about the 60ish pairs that I have in my closet, well, I guess they'd say I have a serious addiction problem.

Awh, I can't imagine my future husband (wedding in 40 days!) being gone like Colby is...you are a tough cookie! I've been reading your blog off and on (when I remember to check Google Reader) for a good year or so now and I have lost track of how many times he's been gone. Or maybe it sees like more than it has been, don't know. I have an Abe Lincoln too and he also untucks the sheets and it drives me nuts.
